My heart is fixed

“O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, Even with my glory. Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.

Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: And thy glory above all the earth; That thy beloved may be delivered: Save with thy right hand, and answer me.” Psalm 108:1–6 Continue reading My heart is fixed

Of a truth

Psalms 107:23-31 NKJV Those who go down to the sea in ships, Who do business on great waters, They see the works of the Lord, And His wonders in the deep.

Fervent prayer

Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months. And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit. Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him; Let him know, that he which converteth the … Continue reading Fervent prayer
